You Already Own Whatever Your Investment Will Pay You in Dividends
Image Source: Images Money. Stocks are generally valued on the present value of all their future free cash flows, which already include future dividend payments. A company’s dividend policy may impact an investor’s eagerness to pay a higher price for shares on the basis of a higher yield, but the dividend is a symptom of future free cash flows (and therefore intrinsic value), not the driver behind it.

Dividend King Leggett & Platt’s Payout May Be Worth the Risk
Image: Leggett & Platt has put together a long track record of consecutive annual dividend increases, but recent performance suggests that the dividend may be at risk in the longer run. Its 7.1% dividend yield may be worth the risk, however. Leggett & Platt has raised its dividend for more than 50 consecutive years, putting it in the coveted category of being a Dividend King. However, the bedding, flooring and textile product maker has fallen on some difficult times. The company sports a Dividend Cushion ratio of -1.2 (negative 1.2), indicating that our future expectations of its dividend payments over the next five years coupled with its net debt position fall far below the cumulative free cash flow that we expect it to generate over the next five years. The company's 7.1% dividend yield may be worth the risk, however.

Use Both the Dividend Cushion Ratio (Probability of a Dividend Cut) and the Qualitative Dividend Ratings in Your Assessment of the Payout
The Dividend Cushion ratio ranks companies on the probability of a dividend cut in the longer run, while the qualitative ratings in part assess the outlook for the health of the payout in the near term in the context of management’s willingness to preserve and raise the payout. Since the systematic application of the Dividend Cushion ratio across our coverage in 2012, the Dividend Cushion ratio has forewarned readers of approximately 50 dividend cuts. We estimate its efficacy at ~90% at identifying the risks of a dividend cut in advance of the event.
